I'm not sure you'd want to waste your money and time on one that does not require the GMAT. The GMAT is given to ensure students are qualified for the rigors of a proper MBA curriculum. If a school does not weed out unqualified students up front, that, to me, indicates the students and the school's curriculum are below average.
If the students are below average, that means the professors will have to dummy down what they teach. In which case, you will be getting less than a proper MBA education.
You may find a good school that does not require the GMAT, but I can just about guarantee you it will require something equivalent in its stead. In my case, for example, I did not have to take a GMAT to enter a good business school for my PhD. But instead, I had to take five undergraduate business courses in finance and marketing before I could even begin my PhD seminars.

Frequently, Economics M.S. programs will allow you to submit GMAT or GRE test scores; that may be an option for you. I doubt you will find any major universities that do not require GMAT scrores for an MBA or M.S. in Finance… maybe one of those online degree programs, but those are probably a waste of time if you expect the type of jobs that graduate degrees usually open the doors for.
